After updating xorg-x11-* from 6.8.2.0-1 to 6.8.99.901-1 I get exactly the behavior you describe.
As Charles L. Werner wrote in a different thread even after downgrading X again to 6.8.2 the problem remains. :( And the "The NTVDM CPU has encountered an illegal instruction" or similar popup has nothing to do with symbolic links. Try this: $ cd /usr/grace/bin/ $ strace ./xmgrace.exe and you'll get a popup. I tried gdb, but: $ gdb ./xmgrace.exe GNU gdb 6.5.50.20060706-cvs (cygwin-special) (snip) This GDB was configured as "i686-pc-cygwin"...(no debugging symbols found) (gdb) run Starting program: /usr/grace/bin/xmgrace.exe Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. Error: dll starting at 0x771000 not found. Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. ---Type <return> to continue, or q <return> to quit--- Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. Program exited with code 030000000005. You can't do that without a process to debug. that doesn't help much either. Over the weekend I'll build a xmgrace version with debug information. Maybe that helps.
